Willie Charles Carswell was 60 when he vanished from an assisted living facility in Inkster, Michigan, in the summer of 2012. He lived at 2 Footprints on Springhill; staff never reported him missing and he is believed to have been last seen sometime in July. His family filed a missing person report in September 2012 after repeated attempts to contact him failed.

Willie was described as a vulnerable adult with diabetes who needed insulin and as mentally disabled. At the time he disappeared he had a mustache and a goatee about an inch long, a receding hairline with very thin, longer black hair, brown eyes, and poorly maintained long fingernails and toenails. The initial two-month delay before anyone raised the alarm left investigators without a clear timeline of his movements and hampered the case.

The investigation remains open. If anyone knew Willie, lived near the 3800 block of Springhill in 2012, or has information about his whereabouts, please come forward.
